6/10
A major disappointment and grim bummer of a suspense thriller to say the least.

Warning: Spoilers
IT COMES AT NIGHT (2017) ** Joel Edgerton, Carmen Ejogo, Kelvin Harrison, Jr., Christopher Abbott, Riley Keough, Griffin Robert Faulkner, David Pendleton. Very misleadingly titled horror film (for those with no imagination that is) about 2 families facing an unknown plague that threatens their physical, emotional and mental well-beings (to say the least) with plenty of dread and paranoia caked on. Filmmaker Trey Edward Shults employs all the ins and outs of a body horror genre film with atmosphere but skimps on the whats, whys, hows which is beyond frustrating and cops out in its final act (um, one too many 'dream sequences' to begin with). A major disappointment and grim bummer of a suspense thriller to say the least.
